Psychologists are going to have a field day with this election.
What you and what seems like a thousand other Trumpers on this board are doing every day is rationalizing, irrational behavior.
If this is as wide spread as it appears to be, then the republic is lost. But I came to that conclusion when the same sort of thing elected Obama twice. In 2012, I decided that the republic was lost.
There was a glimmer of potential in electing the 1st conservative since Reagan, but if these poll numbers are correct, this will not likely occur.
Well then, if that is the case, then I am certainly not responsible for it and I will do what I can to keep and hold onto what is mine and keep my loved ones as safe as I can.
But it's not going to be pretty. One can only hope that a new republic rises from the ash.
Irrational behavior sometimes is difficult to diagnose by the irrational.
other times, the irrational think that the rational are not.
This republic certainly is sinking, and some see a possible way out, vs simply sucking in one last breath of water and going to sleep.
I hope to live to witness the next five years. I will keep you posted
:-)
If there is one thing that I revel at it is the discomfiture of that incompetent class of individuals. The common theme among Trump supporters is that they are fed up with the betrayal by incompetent sell-out crony con artists. Only a pusillanimous soul would try to look for a deeper meaning than that.
